Bought a camera that was shy over $1K (1.3K) and was charged 10% GST + $54 processing fee.

In another case, the camera was just under $1K and they didn't charge me a cent.

Mike is correct - if the package is $1500 - GST = $150 and add a further $54 proc fee.

Depending on what country you are purchasing from, it still can be cost effective even if you pay GST. For example, if you buy goods from the UK you can get the VAT deducted when they are being exported. I don't know about other countries in the EEU.
